Sacramento, California – A woman and a teenager were seriously injured in a collision between a car and two trucks that forced the closure of the M6 for several hours.
The highway was closed between Junction 13, towards Penkridge, and Junction 12, towards Cannock, in Staffordshire, after the crash occurred around 02:15 GMT.
The ambulance service reported that the driver of the car is believed to have suffered potentially life-threatening injuries. The girl, who was a passenger in the car, was also seriously injured. Both had to be rescued from their white Toyota by the firefighters, according to Staffordshire Police.
The full closure of the highway at Junction 13 was lifted at 14:00 GMT, according to National Highways. A spokesperson added that two lanes would remain closed between the entry and exit slip roads at Junction 12 to allow for the removal of the trucks.
The police reported that the drivers of the trucks remained at the scene to speak with officers. The police force has appealed for anyone with dashboard camera footage to get in touch with them.
